Hi all I am following this discussion about ID. I think I won't use ID but keep Potlach as long as ID does not integrate an "advanced" view for "power" users. I use Potlach a lot to do some quick additions, and I always use preselections then switch to the advanced tab to control which tags/values are used and to add some specific tags.
I have probably missed the same feature in ID ?
